Patent CA-2615401-A1 (CA)
Inventor: KELLY DAVID A
IPC: H02J13/00
Filed: 2008-01-02
Abstract: An Electric Utility Power Storage System that is able to carry the full transmission line load without switch-over or interruption. The storage system is ideally suited for storing power during times of surplus and delivering them during times of peak demand. The principal storage device is a high voltage array of high energy density ceramic polymer capacitors with sufficient stored energy to carry the transmission line load from seconds to hours, when an appropriate amount of reserve capacity is installed. The system is ideally suited for DC transmission lines and in some configurations the high density energy storage capacitors are directly connected to the transmission line through a protective disconnect network.

Title: Anti-slip device and methods of using it
Inventor: VERTLIB MAXIM
IPC: B60B39/00
Filed: 2008-03-25
Abstract: The present invention relates to an Anti-Slip Device, which helps the vehicle to start moving and get it off the slippery surface (ice, snow) or deep sand.   Sometimes vehicle can't start moving because of the slippery surface (ice, snow) or deep sand and leave those surfaces without help. The wheels just rotate on the same place and making the surface slippery or going deeper in the sand. In situations like that, there is only one solution to leave those surfaces without anybodies help, it is to place something between the tires and slippery surface or deep sand. The Anti-Slip Devices installed under the tires helps drivers to avoid this problem and take the vehicle off the slippery surface (ice, snow) or deep sand.   Also the Anti-Slip Device can be used as a Stand for Warning Triangle and as an Anti-Rolling Device to prevent the vehicle from moving and the tires from rotating during the jacking up the vehicle.

Title: Selective rejection of touch contacts in an edge region of a touch surface
Inventor: WESTERMAN WAYNE CARL
IPC: G06K11/06
Filed: 2008-12-22
Abstract: The selective rejection of touch contacts in an edge region of a touch sensor panel is disclosed. In addition, by providing certain exceptions to the rejection of edge contacts, the functionality of the touch sensor panel can be maximized.  Contacts in edge bands around the perimeter of a touch sensor panel can be ignored.  However, if a contact in the edge band moves beyond a threshold distance or speed, it can be recognized as part of a gesture. To accommodate different finger sizes, the size of the edge band can be modified based on the identification of the finger or thumb. Furthermore, if contacts in the center region of a touch sensor panel track the movement of contacts in the edge band, the contacts in the edge band can be recognized as part of a gesture.

Title: Process for commercial production of maple syrup with low energy requirement
Inventor: CHADBOURNE VALERIE GAY
IPC: C13B25/00
Filed: 2009-05-13
Abstract: The maple syrup process of the invention reduces water content in maple sap to the required sugars measurement in a clean and naturally occurring way. Water reductions as much as 20% more efficient than the reverse osmosis (RO) process are achievevd and provide a 75% water reduction by using the natural climate conditions on site in a maple sugar bush in the freeze and thaw process. Undesired water is further reduced by the process to levels in order to achieve the goal of a finished maple syrup with 1/3 water and 2/3 sugars.   The invention provides a process for the production of maple syrup comprising the steps of exposure of collected raw maple sap to a cold surface, gradually cooling the sap to a temperature sufficient to commence freezing, continuing the cooling and freezing to form a solids body of sap ice and a separate first sugars containing component from the solids body, continuing said cooling and freezing until the first sugars containing component reaches a substantially thickened or solid consistency, and thirdly, separation of the first sugars containing component from the said solids body.   The invention also provides a process where selective exposure of the solids body to a heat source causes the sap ice to commence melting and then collecting said melt liquid having the highest concentration of remaining sugars running off first, preferably in a downward direction.   By the process the melt liquid is re-combined with the maple gel and subjected to themal cooking or curing into a traditional amber coloured flavourful maple syrup.
